persons. Blind people will mainly use the screen perimeter with the button and the three sliders (left, bottom
and right).
A Note on Working with Sliders
When the gesture performed is in the Left or Right Slider, swipe up or down. When using the Bottom Slider,
swipe left or right. If the gesture in question is perpendicular to the slider, you can begin or end in the
touchscreen area.
Using the keyboards available on insideONE
Please note that the braille and QWERTY keyboards cannot be used simultaneously. To dismiss either
keyboard, swipe down with one finger in the Left Slider.
The QWERTY Keyboard
To activate the QWERTY keyboard for use by a sighted individual, hold one finger in the Left Slider for five
seconds. Caution: if you are using JAWS, you stay with the Windows gestures. To switch to the JAWS gestures,
you must perform a five-finger rotation on the screen.
You can close the QWERTY keyboard using the cross at the top right corner of the keyboard window, but the
tactile mode will still be active. You will be able to reactivate the QWERTY keyboard using the keyboard icon in
the notification area, close to the date/time icon.
The Braille Keyboard
To activate the Braille keyboard, place and hold your fingers on dots 1 through 6 for one second, and wait for
an audible tone along with confirmation on the display that the keyboard is active.
You can use the braille keyboard to emulate the keys found on a standard Windows QWERTY keyboard. Please
see the appendices at the end of this manual for key
hh
combinations corresponding to those keys. When using
the braille keyboard, the text is not entered immediately after placing your fingers on the keys. Instead, when
you lift your hands from the keyboard, your key presses are registered, and text is entered at that time. If you
have placed your hands incorrectly while brailling, and do not wish for those keys to be registered, slide your
fingers away from the braille keys before lifting them. When typing, be sure that your fingers are not resting
on the edges of the braille keys; otherwise, your keypresses may not register correctly. You can rest your wrists
on the front edge of the insideONE for comfortable typing.
For beginners, learning how to monitor the braille keyboard, it is possible to set typing speed, using the
Control menu or the Control icon, then going to Settings, Tactile and then Keyboard. See Settings chapter.
The Braille input and output grade is chosen in the options of your chosen screen reader everywhere else.
